RE: Redhat 8.0

[Security Admin <SecurityAdmin () hyprotech com>]

Have you investigated a *bsd platform? I messed with Linux and then played
with the FreeBSD and OpenBSD platforms. After lots of messing around I find
the FreeBSD platform nice and easy, with an optional GUI if you are so
inclined.
There is a doc at http://www.inetsecurity.info covering the install steps of
snort, mysql, apache and acid on freeBSD (actually it covers a central
logging console and remote sensors, but you just need to install snort on
the console and your working on a single machine)

Just my couple pennies worth :o)

Kewl,

Just wanted you opinion on the matter. You are right though, most of the
contrib stuff is Unix based. I have seen some issues with Red Hat 8.0 on the
mailing listsrv. Might want to look at some of the archive info. Seems like
most are going back to RH 7.3. Seems to work a bit better especially on the
install. (By the way, I have installed did on 8.0 with no problems, ACID,
MySQL, Syslog)

Good luck

Wayne,

Most of the snort information available pertains to Linux installs.  The
win32 version does not always have the ancillary contrib files and so forth.
No particular reason for RH 8.0 other than that is what I am running.

Thanks,
Tom

Tom,

Can I ask you why you are tired of working on a Win2K platform for Snort?
Also, why are you planning to use Red Hat 8.0? Any particular choice of
platform?

Thanks for your time and efforts

Wayne

Hello,

Any issues running snort 1.9.0 on Redhat 8.0?  Tired of working with win32
version on Windows 2000.


Thanks,
Tom
